The fauna, flora and landscapes of the Dean in pictures

Fallow Deer (Dama dama)

Bit of a quiet day in the forest today… spotted a few deer from a distance, this being the only capture I was able to manage.Tried a zoom burst effect on this one, but not using the ‘in camera’ technique of zooming the lens during the exposure – deer aren’t obliging enough to stand still for that! I’m not sure how well it works really, but I wanted to try it.
